NASA is quietly rewriting the script for human exploration of the Red Planet, turning robots from remote-controlled tools ...

Keeping panels clear of dust in large solar farms can be a time-consuming, wasteful and costly business. A Sicilian technology startup called the Reiwa Engine has developed an autonomous robot called ...

Robots are paving the way for humans on the Moon and Mars. Missions are currently tracking radiation, mapping water, and ...

Some Mars robots get help from nature to fend off dust for longer. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. NASA's Mars InSight lander ...

Delivery robots are on the fast-track to the mainstream. Autonomous delivery via self-driving cars, on the other hand, is likely further off. Development of the technology has been a slow process, as ...
